How to convert megabits per second to kilobits per second

1 Mbit/s = 1,000 kbit/s, so multiply by 1,000 to go from megabits per second to kilobits per second. Going the other way, 1 kbit/s = 0.001 Mbit/s.

kbit/s = Mbit/s × 1,000
Mbit/s = kbit/s × 0.001

Worked example:

1 Mbit/s = 1000 kbit/s
5 × 1000 = 5000 kbit/s
